From Someone Who Loves the RHS Events:
This year (2015) I had the opportunity to go to several events sponsored by the Richfield Historical Society at the Richfield Historical Park.
I can’t say how much we enjoyed the Maple Syrup Family Day, Thresheree, Antique Car Show & Baseball Game. Several years ago we enjoyed the horse rides at Christmas at the Mill House.
These events were well planned and a relaxing day with my family including my grandson who got to run, play and eat ice cream while my parents reminisced about the old steam engines and farm equipment. For a step back in time, don’t missed the restored Mill House, Mill and log buildings. I appreciated the scenic free tractor trailer ride from the parking lot to activities.
Thanks to the volunteers for all these fun events !!
